Book Crossings - Setting Books Free

Greetings Dear Readers,

It has been a great writing week and I have had the unique opportunity to set a book free. There is a site called book crossings that tracks books that are left out in the open for others to take and read. See the above site. Let me know what you think.

TO RJ's STUDENTS:
I have not had anyone take me up on the challenge. Is she working you too hard? See the post on the encroaching fall.

Wishing you all joy in the journey,

Aramis Thorn

The Encroaching Fall

Greetings Dear Readers,

Because I dwell in the Northern Midwest, the summer drifts away sooner than for most of the nation. Even though it is August and the temperatures still hover in the low eighties, the very subtle hints that Summer is packing her bags linger in the air. The morning temperature are in the mid to low fifties. The dew lies heavier on the lawn and my thoughts turn to camp fire, hot chocolate, and corn mazes.

I would like to give you all a writing challenge. Capture the essence of fall in one five sentence paragraph. Submit them via email to aramisthorn@aol.com. I will choose the best one and send you a free copy of my newest book. I will also publish it in this blog. Let me see who can make fall come alive for me while the AC is still running.

Wishing you joy in the journey,

Aramis Thorn
